The White House on Tuesday pushed back on left-wing suggestions that the federal government should allow abortion services to be provided on federal land following the Supreme Court’s decision to reverse Roe v. Wade.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) are among those who called on the federal government to use federal land to provide abortions in states that restrict the procedure, which religious groups and some conservatives say is murder and has caused significant damage to the concept of the traditional family unit.
